Introduction
When an Electro-hydraulic Pump (EHP) has been installed as a part
of the hydraulic steering, the ship can be steered by auto-pilot or
by means of a panel with joystick, or with a hand-held with 'rocker
switch'.
The panel with joystick (EHPJSTA) can be fitted on the dashboard
where it serves as the main steering control.
The ship can be steered from any position on board using the hand-
held with 'rocker switch' (RECONEHP). This then operates as the sec-
ondary control.
Always consult the manuals for the hydraulic cylinder, piping, non-
return valves, hand pump units, EHP and Auto-pilot.

Installation
Panel with joystick
• Fit the control panel next to the steering position. There should
be a minimum of 50 mm free space behind the panel.
The panel is fitted with a plug and socket.
• Bring the connector cable between the EHP and control panel
and connect the plug and socket.
Connector cables with plug and socket are available in the following
lengths:
Connector Cable 6 m
Article Code: BP29
Connector Cable 10 m
Article Code: BP2910
Connector Cable 16 m
Article Code: BP2916
Connector Cable 18 m
Article Code: BP2918
Connector Cable 20 m
Article Code: BP2920
• Connect the cable to the EHP as described in 'Electrical Installa-
tion' .
If it is necessary to cut the connector cable and then join it again,
ensure that the core colours match.
N.B.: The core colours in the connector cable differ from those of the
wires used in the panel!
Hand-held with 'rocker switch'
• Fit the socket for the coiled-lead plug close to the steering posi-
tion.
Fit the socket in such a way that water cannot remain in it.
• Install a cable from the socket to the EHP.
Fit an 'ON - OFF' switch in the 'positive' (+) wire of the cable near
the socket.
• Connect the socket, 'ON - OFF' switch and the EHP as described in
'Electrical Installation' .

Electrical installation
Consult the various 'Installation Examples' on pages 10 and 11 for
connecting the panel with joystick or the hand-held with 'rocker
switch' to the EHP and/or auto-pilot.
Fit a 2 Amp fuse in the 'positive' (+) wire of the control current circuit.
A fuse and a main switch should be fitted in the 'positive' (+) wiring
of the EHP power supply. Consult the instructions for the EHP for the
type of fuse.
Limit switches
Install the limit switches supplied in the rudder stops.
The limit switches should be set up in such a way that the rudder
arm strikes the mechanical rudder stop before the end of the switch
movement is reached.
Fit the limit switches with two M4 screws. This allows an adjustment
range of 2 mm for the switch.
It is also possible to connect a check lamp to the limit switches.
See page 9 for connecting and adjusting the limit switches.

Operation
Panel with joystick:
• Switch the main switch on.
Switching on the panel:
• Press the on/off switch twice.
After the switch is pressed once the LED will flash green and the
buzzer will sound continuously (. . . . . . .) The on/off switch must
be pressed a second time within 6 seconds. The LED will then re-
main green and the buzzer will confirm that the panel is ready for
use by giving the signal (- . -).
The EHP electric motor is operated by the selector switch.
• Press the on/off switch once after the EHP has been used. The pa-
nel will sound a signal (. . . - . -).
• Switch the main switch off when leaving the ship.
Hand-held with 'rocker switch':
• Insert the coiled-lead plug in the socket.
• Switch the main switch on.
• Switch the control current switch on.
The EHP electric motor is operated by the selector switch.
• After using the EHP, switch off the control current switch.
• Switch off the main switch when leaving the ship.
